Cultural Fusion: Cape Making

These are a few photos of the cape making progress! I've decided to go for the design I previously posted, but with a embellished Henna neckline, finished photos will be up soon.

 So many pom poms...

Cultural Fusion: Henna

Finally I have decided what culture to fuse my Incan/Peruvian patterns with! I have decided to go for India, purely for their beautiful bridal dresses. I love the Henna patterns and the heavy embellishment (definitely an embellishment lover if you hadn't guessed...) I'd like to embellish the collar/around the neckline of the cape with a variety of Henna patterns.

After doing a bit of experimenting on my original design, I think the top one is better!

Portfolio Building

After a day of trying to produce more portfolio boards I can safely say I have never been so stressed in my entire life. I'd also like to add, spray mount is HORRIBLE stuff, i'm still trying to scrub it off my hands, and the furniture...

I can't decide to whether or not to stick this board down, I'm not sure if there is too much going on!?
